
Human efforts are cognitive rational
(process), using a specific method (method),
so that a systematic body of knowledge that
explains causality of an object associated
with natural and social phenomena

What is learned or object of study science?
(ontologi aspect)
How can science study the object of
study?(epistemologi aspect)
What is the value to science(aksiologi aspect)

Studying the behavior of economic life or the

Macro Economic Theory a set of variable
definitions and concepts, assumptions, and
relationships between economic variables
that can be used agregatif as a framework to
explain the thinking, prediction, and control
the various symptoms or behavior in the
economic life agregate
Variable quantities that can be measured (or can be scaled), whose value can
vary. (Akley, 1978:6)
 Example:
National Income (Y)
Household Consumption Expenditure(C)
Government Consumption Expenditure(G)
Investment spending (I)
Aggregate price level or the General Price Level(P)
Money Supply(Ms)
Export (x)
Impor t(m)
Money Demand (L)
Taxes (Tx)
National Saving (S)
Interest Rate (i)
Foreign exchange rates (E)
The Supply and Demand of Labor(Nd dan Ns)
Aggregate Wage Level(W)
Job Opportunities Volume (N)

The relationship between variables is
expressed by using the functions
Function Mathematical concept that shows
how independent variables affect the
dependent variable
Cth: C=f(Y) where dC/dY > 0. Means, the
amount of aggregate consumption
expenditure positively influenced by the size
of national income. Positive means if Y rises
then C also rises


Macro Economic Model  Theoretical
construction of macroeconomic theories
formulated quantitatively.
Because expressed quantitatively, the macro
models of the economy has a group of
mathematical equations, the equation
consists of identity, behavior and condition of
balance equation

Equation
• Describes a definition / meaning similarity indicates a variable declared in one /
more other variables
• Exp: Y = C+I, national income is consumption expenditure plus investment
expenditure
• Describes the relationship of causality between variables that were formulated
in the form of the function.
• Exp: C=C(Y)
• Describes a condition for achieving a balanced position between the variables

Achievements
• Fiscal Policy All government action to
control the course of national economic life in
the desired direction, which is implemented
through the State Budget
• Monetary Policy-> All the central bank action
to control the economic life in the desired
direction by controlling the money supply
